cape cod rich

Having enough credit or cash on your mediocre income to appear wealthier than you are. To the year round locals you appear mega wealthy, but to city folks, you’re a middle class joke.

Dude- that family is Cape Cod rich. $650K home, two nice cars that are leased, and they keep borrowing money on the home to send their kids to prep schools. On a good day- have a net worth of 500K.

controller's controller

A financial or corporate controller who is so anal about every fine detail of accounting whether for their publicly traded company or their own grocery shopping list.

That guy is surely a controller's controller... He told the board about an accounting error made back in 2015 during the 2020 board meeting. He also is known to triple check his grocery receipt and cannot go one mile over 3,000 without an oil change. That guy is a controller's controller!
